Waltzing Matilda Day

[keats]

OK, that's enough Neville!!!! There is a fine line between liking Classical Music and Idolising Heavy Metal, Punk and HipHop Poetry!!!!!! Your relevance to dead piano players have nothing to do with Bush Poetry, whereas the likes of our forefathers in the field such as Banjo Peterson, Geoff Lawson, C.J.Tennis and Aussie Ozbourne should be acknowledged much more seriously. Although Beat Hoven was blind, it is no excuse for his drunken approach to music. Bach was nothing but a repetitive noise in the night from the local pound and if it wasn't for Victor Borge, the piano would be left entirely to the mercy of Elton John and Liberace. We need todays poetry heroes such as Les Murray and Raymond J. Bartholomew to carry on our Aussie traditional rhymes.

Also Angus Young is a mean poet on his day day also, just no one listens.

....might be cos he stutters...?

[keats]

Who? Angus? Considering he's a guitarist who doesn't sing, I don't think a stutter would be a hindrance. Unless his fingers stutter, which would only add more to his tremolo resonance. (*Neil starts to think that he is caught up in a Time Warp of very old people in the Bush Poetry circle*) Still trying to figure out the relevance to deaf, dumb and blind dead piano players to Aussie Rhyming Verse, but presumes that the answer is not far away! LOL

C'mon Glenny! a Day Day is HipHop Rap Rap for 24 hours plus another 24 unrelated and totally irrelevant hours. Thus day day is still only 24 hours. Do I really need to explain the obvious in the ABPA (Accented Bulgarian Punk Association) web site?

That is silly Glenny. Stop being silly!!! lol

....oops. I plum forgot about the extra day you get in 24 hrs...especially when the smoke is getting to you...from the campfire of course.
Ah well...that's my civic duty for the day...saving Neville for a while......go write summat keats...quick...

[keats]

Ahh, a pen!!! That's better. Feeling calmer now. Thanks Glenny. Hey what rhymes with Briggs???? lol

[Neville Briggs]

As a matter of slight interest to this debate about pianos, in Eric Bogle's original recording of And The Band Played Waltzing Matilda, Eric Bogle sang the song to the accompaniment of...a piano!!!.

We can't escape the influence of the past, our arts do not exist in a vacuum, they build on many layers of foundations. Even the screaming guitar players owe their instruments to reeking Spanish shepherds strumming away in the fields of Catalonia while Columbus sailed away to discover the Caribbeans.

Same with our bush poetry. The tradition of folk poetry goes back to the Celtic bards who recited rude and subversive verse about Caesar as Hadrian was building a wall across northern Britain.

We haven't made ourselves, we are the product of a long process of development and change.

What rhymes with Briggs.... PIGS !!!
